Well,,,it has been about three months since I was here.....and I have really fallen off the wagon...
I had foot surgery in July, and ever since then have been doing other stuff,,,eating whatever,,,,but before that I had been on Atkins for over a year and had lost 53 pounds, which is great for a person in their fifties.
However, 9 weeks ago my daughter talked me into joining weight watchers with her,,,I did,,and have lost 11 pounds,,,but have been gaining the last two weeks, The thing that really buend me up, waslast week they were discussing the low carb diets that aaare so popular . Thye said they didnt work,that you wouldnt have fruits and vegetables,,that they were unhealthy,it just made me really upset that they talked so freely about something that they have never tried. So,,I told my daughter,,,I am going back to Atkins this weekend! I felt great when I was on it,,had no cravings, was never hungry, and was losing inches when I wasnt losing pounds. So, I have been reading all your posts,,and will be back this weekend,,have a pitch in at work today so am going to wait till that is over
Many of my friends are doing the low carb thingnow too,,so it will be easier this time.
Anyway, thanks for being there all of you,,,,this site was my main source of inspiration before, and will be again I am sure.
See you tomorrow!!!
